Chapter 349: Blinded by Lard, Dare Not Make the Same Mistake Again
"When I heard that Wanpin was here, I was planning to go back directly, but Eunuch Su came in and informed the emperor, so I couldn't leave directly."
Fu Cha Zhixi smiled and reported Su Peisheng.
Su Peisheng felt deep displeasure in the emperor's eyes as he glanced at him, and he felt a wave of regret in his heart. He really was blinded by his own greed and why did he agree to Jinxi's request out of soft heart?
Hearing this, the emperor glanced at Su Peisheng with displeasure. After a little thought, he guessed what had just happened outside.
Upon seeing this, Su Peisheng quickly knelt down respectfully and apologized.
"It's all my fault. I was confused. I hope Your Majesty will forgive me."
"You offended the Imperial Concubine, so naturally you have to see what the Imperial Concubine means."
The emperor spoke to Su Peisheng in a cold tone.
He glanced at Zhen Huan beside him imperceptibly, and when he saw that the other party also looked puzzled, his suspicion of Zhen Huan and Su Peisheng was slightly reduced.
But he still didn't intend to let it go. Su Peisheng was a servant beside him. What he did today was obviously to help Concubine Wan.
But Wanpin is just a concubine. She cannot compare with the imperial concubine in terms of favor and status. It is obvious that Su Peisheng's behavior today must be suspicious. It seems that we have to investigate it thoroughly afterwards. He cannot keep a servant with two hearts around him.
"Your Majesty, this is not a big deal. I think Eunuch Su probably didn't react for a while, so he did something bad with good intentions. This is not an offense to me."
Fu Cha Zhixi smiled and looked at the emperor and said.
"Since the Imperial Concubine pleaded for you, I will fine you three months' salary. If you do it again, it won't be so easy."
The emperor spoke to Su Peisheng in a bad tone.
"Yes, I know, I won't dare to do it again in the future."
Su Peisheng thought to himself that this was not good. If the emperor did not punish him, he would probably become suspicious. Why did he suddenly lose his mind and agree to Jinxi's request?
As the emperor's chief eunuch, the most important thing for him is the emperor's trust. If he loses the emperor's trust, he will probably not be able to hold on to this position.
You have to know that there are many people in the palace who covet his position, and countless people want to pull him down.
Thinking of this, Su Peisheng couldn't help but feel a little dissatisfied with both Jingxi and Zhen Huan.
Zhen Huan did not expect that the imperial concubine would cause trouble for Su Peisheng as soon as she came, which made her standing aside feeling a little embarrassed.
"I heard that the emperor was busy with state affairs today and stayed in the Qinzheng Palace the whole time. I thought that the emperor probably didn't have a good meal, so I brought some easy-to-digest food here. I didn't expect that Wanpin was also here. It seems that I came at an untimely time."
After Fu Cha Zhixi smiled at Zhen Huan, she turned around and spoke to the emperor in a coquettish tone.
"How could that be? You came here because you were worried about me."
The emperor stood up, took Fucha Zhixi's hand, and sat on the couch together.
"I'm a little hungry right now, why don't you accompany me for dinner?"
"Princess Wan, your method is good. I'll leave this matter to you. You can go back first."
The emperor turned to look at Zhen Huan and spoke.
"Tomorrow, the wife of Prince Dun will come to the palace. You and the Queen will receive her together."
Zhen Huan didn't expect that the Emperor wanted to drive her away as soon as the imperial concubine arrived, which made her feel a little uncomfortable.
However, the emperor gave her the task of persuading Fu Jin, which made her feel a little better.
I guess the emperor trusts me more, so he entrusted such an important task to her instead of the imperial concubine who has a higher rank than him.
Thinking of this, Zhen Huan looked at the emperor with a smile and said.
"The minister and concubine follow the order."
The imperial concubine probably didn't understand what she and the emperor were saying.
Zhen Huan couldn't help but glance at Concubine Xuan, but the Concubine didn't pay any attention to her at this moment. Instead, she took the meal out of the food box very seriously, which made Zhen Huan, who originally wanted to show off, suddenly cool down.
"Your Highness, I will take my leave now."
Zhen Huan couldn't help but speak out to attract the imperial concubine's attention.
"Go."
Fu Cha Zhixi smiled faintly and looked up at Zhen Huan and said.
Zhen Huan did not expect that the imperial concubine looked at her with such helpless jealousy, which made her feel indescribable.
It was as if the things she cared about and was even proud of were worthless in the eyes of the imperial concubine.
Does the imperial concubine really not care what she and the emperor just talked about?
Zhen Huan couldn't help biting her lips, but the Emperor had already ordered her to leave, so she couldn't just stay here and leave in a huff.
After seeing Zhen Huan leave, Fu Cha Zhixi looked at the emperor with a smile and said.
"I was thinking about the emperor, so after preparing the meal, I hurried over, but who would have thought that I would be a step behind."
"Your Majesty has called Concubine Wan away again. Doesn't this make me look petty and ungenerous?"
"I am not such a person."
After Fu Cha Zhixi finished speaking, she turned around and avoided the emperor's gaze.
"I don't mean that. In my heart, Xi'er is the most virtuous woman in the world."
When the emperor saw Fu Cha Zhixi's expression, he thought to himself that the girl must be jealous, and everything she said was sour.
"I asked Wanpin to leave first. Firstly, we have finished talking about everything we need to talk about. Secondly, I thought that if Wanpin were here, you would feel uncomfortable. If you think that I am not doing this well, Wanpin has not gone far. I will ask Su Peisheng to call her back."
After the emperor said this, he pretended to call Su Peisheng in, but his eyes were staring at Fu Cha Zhixi with a teasing look.
"emperor!"
Upon hearing this, Fu Cha Zhixi subconsciously turned around and wanted to stop the emperor. As soon as she turned around, she met the emperor's smiling eyes and realized that she had been fooled.
"Your Majesty always likes to bully me, but I won't obey."
Fu Cha Zhixi couldn't help but throw herself into the emperor's arms and said.
The emperor smiled and hugged her even tighter. The girl said that she hated him, but her actions were very honest.
However, he shouldn't continue teasing her now, lest he really make her angry.
"I have been busy with state affairs these days and haven't been to see Fu Zhen much. Why don't you bring Fu Zhen here today?"
The emperor looked at Fu Cha Zhixi in his arms and couldn't help but think of his youngest son. The smile on his face became more obvious.
"Your Majesty, don't you see how late it is? Fu Zhen has already fallen asleep. I don't have the heart to wake him up. If Your Majesty wants to see the child, you should go and see him in person."
Fu Cha Zhixi raised his eyes, snorted, and said rather unhappily.
